Community Contribution
We believe
that a free capital market system functions
properly and humanely only when businesses act
with social responsibility, our motto is
“Contribute”.
During the course of any year we will:
v
Sponsor 25-30 youth teams
v
Give 5,000 notebooks to school children
v
Provide breakfast to 200 children every school
day
v
Take and give away 3,000 photos of
children with Santa Clause
v
Provide funding for vocational teachers to the
Puerto Plata School for the deaf
v
Contribute to local organizations and
initiatives to improve health, education and
reduce poverty
Joyeria Las Americas also offers a variety of
handmade goods produced by the Puerto Plata
School for the Deaf. 100% of the proceeds of
these goods go directly back to the school.
It is our firm belief that every human being can
make a significant change in the world and it
all starts with just one small gesture of
kindness. Be careful it is contagious!
